A DeviantArt photo-manipulation copyright policy (where you have to get the photographer's approval before posting photo-manipulations on DeviantArt) led me to get the photographer's approval on my alley. (I admit that I probably didn't need his approval, but DeviantArt's policy is vague and got me slightly concerned, so I wanted to lean on the safe side.) Here is the approval I received a couple months back. Just posting this here for our project's records:

I saw your Kilkenny Alley photograph from Ireland online:

I had a feeling that I knew already that place, when I saw your drawing (and source photo) for the first time.... And your email only confirms my intuition... :) What a coincidence.

 

Here's another photo from Killkenny. (that's me, btw) This small town is really atmospheric and full of nice and inspirational architecture.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
